Good evening, I an planning on installing an outdoor fan on our patio which is located under a sun room. I was going to tap into the already existing outdoor recessed outlet box (GFCI), bring the Romex up to a 2 outdoor switches (the TAYMAC weatherproof ones) and then route the 12-3 Romex back inside and up the wall and then over about 15 feet in the floor joists , and then exit the house. This will place the conduit up in deck joists under the sun room so it would be less visible. I plan on running 3/4 conduit from the fan to the wall with 12 gauge THWN wire, and then place a Carlon 3/4-in Pull Hub to connect the THWN to Romex (per the Big Box Store rep recommendation). I would then run the Romex through a conduit sleeve back inside as previously described. I have several questions. Can I use Romex as it would exit the house where it would be spliced to the THWN or should I buy some UF or other wire? I have tried researching this online but have found differing thoughts. The interior wall behind the outlet I am tapping into is currently exposed as I am working on a media room so now is an easy time to run a wire. Can I actually use the Pull hub to splice the Romex/THWN together or should I instead put an exterior box? If so, thoughts on what box as well as how to run it through the siding? Any other thought are appreciated . Thank you . [h1] [/h1]

Hi all One fine (not) day...The lights and receptacle in the basement stopped working. If I turn on light switch, the light will flicker on for half a second and then nothing. Using the receptacle tester showed the problem as ”hot and ground reversed”. Calling an electrician is a little challenging due to over abundance of covid virus in my county. Any recommendations will be helpful. Especially since basement houses the play area for the kids. Thanks
